💚🤍 It's Wiltshire Day today....have a good one and visit your local history centre in Amesbury 🤍💚

Celebrated annually on June 5th, this special day commemorates the county's rich heritage and marks the date the 'Bustard Flag' was first flown in 2007. The alternating green and white stripes on the flag represent the lush grass of the downs and the chalk beneath, while the central Great Bustard (the world's heaviest flying bird) celebrates the successful reintroduction of the species to Salisbury Plain.
